What is Preventing You From Taking Care of Your Hearing Problem?

December 28, 2022 by Kathy

Just as with most other medical conditions, we tend to procrastinate. Most people wait seven years before doing anything about their hearing loss. There are some important reasons why you should not put off your visit to your  hearing aid audiologist. We know that when you hear better, your brain works better. You are less likely to develop dementia, fall, or become depressed.

Types Of Excuses For Not Getting Help

There are many excuses for not doing something

  1. Too Embarrassed To Wear Hearing Aids

This is a common excuse not to visit a hearing aid doctor. Today’s hearing aids are very small and discreet. They are not your grandmother’s hearing aids. They are tiny computers that can change your life for the better.

  1. Not Ready To Accept The Truth

Many people think that they are hiding their hearing loss. Nothing could be further from the truth. Smiling and nodding isn’t the answer. You aren’t kidding anyone.

  1. They Are Not Affordable

Hearing aids come in all price ranges. There are less expensive, affordable, hearing aids. Some hearing aid audiologists even offer financing.

  1. They Won’t Work

Hearing aid technology has improved significantly. These tiny computers preserve directionality, and limit background noise, are bluetooth compatible and are designed to work with other technology like television or mobile phones. Some hearing aids can even be fit at your first visit from the nearest hearing aid specialist in St. Petersburg, FL.

  1. Fear Of Losing Them

The key to not losing hearing aids, is to make sure your audiologist goes over proper insertion, how to wear masks with hearing aids, and how to store them properly.
